For those wondering how to get the new Voice Search on CM to work :

1. Install Titanium Backup

2. goto back/restore, and go down to Voice Search

3. tap it to Un-install

4. reboot phone

5. goto Market, and install new version of Voice Search.

6. enjoy!

No need to Nandroid :D

YEP, I missed the old builds the 7/22-23-24 where Exchange was not a PAIN :(

I also lost my Twitter contacts to sync. :(
[EVO 4G General] berardi:
oh gotcha my bad. last night (before this latest update) I was switching to 1x in my apt in a place where I never switch from 3g. Was annoying!

Yeah cell tower GPS.

Weather doesn't seem to auto update my location. I did a full wipe before I flashed the new nightly.

Can't wait to flash RC1...but right now my kids are hogging the PC...

On another note..why can't we all just get along. All of us started somewhere....understood that a little bit of home work goes a long way in this hobby/passion or ours...but please everyone realize that as the EVO maintains its popularity....there WILL be more noobs....and that they should gradually learn the ways of these forums. Granted there are those that can't seem to be courteous when they are ASKING for help...but smart ass remarks won't motivate them to learn the forum etiquette any sooner. Hope I don't get flamed for jumping on a soap box...but I've seen so much more bickering lately that to me was nonexistent on XDA a few months ago.

Final note...I would like to contribute back to the development and help them with smoothing out the ROM...but I don't seem to remember how to get the logcat when I have an issue. Also...is it better to transfer the logcat onto a text file...and attach...so the post don't keep going and going like this one is now??

Lastly...I need to wipe now...don't want to get poops all over ;)

When we first got the OTA swype we weren't allowed the beta because it was available officially for our device. Shortly after that they opened it up to everyone, you should be able to download it now just fine.

I wipe like a big boy now. No more hanes with stains. Everything is smooth so far. Dankes!
[EVO 4G General] jamesey:
Hmm.. I didn't know it was reopened for us. Thx for the info will have to check it out. Installing the ota one in cm7 is quite an annoying manual process.
[EVO 4G General] brofist:
My personal method is to directly upload an unmodified file to dropbox, then toss it to the awaiting person(s). The least amount of modification as-is possible is my approach, though its not the only approach.

@Cyanogen

Will a landscape lockscreen ever be available for our devices? I tend to prefer everything in landscape, and having a portrait lockscreen seems rather goofy.

Secondly, is there a way to remove the haptic feedback upon unlocking the device?
[EVO 4G General] KLLSWITCH:
so turn your phone and swipe up instant landscape lockscreen
[EVO 4G General] babyschmoof:
Thank you sir.

I just tracked down my rebooting problem. Back in the early days of the cm7 builds, I was told to set my wifi to never sleep. Changed it back tosleep
[EVO 4G General] cdorrell12000:
Why wait for the PC? Hook up your evo to wifi and download direct to your phone :-)
[EVO 4G General] anaglich:
The clock is then sideways, along with the icons and status bar.

I have also noticed that their is a delay when the phone needs to rotate from portrait to landscape after being unlocked.

And if this gets to Cyanogen, I would like information on joining the team. While I cannot code, I am a Graphic Designer and can turn out some very professional looking work which I would love to be able to apply to our phones.

I do appreciate your help though Blownco.

[EVO 4G General] akrod2as:
Just installed RC1, still getting random reboots on an 003 hardware evo. Although I've been getting them with CM 6.1.2 with zendroid as well. This is a fresh install wiped everything, data, cache, dalvik. Nothing is installed. It appears to do it when the phone gets hot but I'm not entirely sure. I did a pull of /proc/last_kmsg for you cyanogen, maybe there's something in there that could help.

Thanks

[EVO 4G General] akrod2as:
and here's another. :(

God damned phone. I see no kernel panics so I'm worried it's a hardware issue.

http://pastebin.com/qSXup7pC
[EVO 4G General] LifeInTheGrey:
Okay, did clean wipe and installed RC1 ... man this thing really flies. I've ran some preliminary tests on most apps (minus GPS-related ones) and everything works great. Tomorrow I'll test GPS, but I'm also curious about battery life; on 36 I was getting pretty good (about 30 hours).

By the way, total side note ... I was getting a partial wakelock from Minimalistic Text when I was running it on both 6.1.2 and 7-nightly. It looked pretty miniscule in Partial Wake Usage in SP, but in my Other Usage section it consistently kept my phone awake between 17% and 20% of the time. Just a heads up for anyone else having the same problems, since uninstalling it the problem no longer exists.

Anyone still having gmail sync randomly uncheck itself? I may need to full wipe for the RC, but I don't think there was ever a fix for it.

[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Is maps always running in the background for you guys? Anyone know the purpose for this? It can't be good on the battery..
[EVO 4G General] brofist:
Its usually running, but its inactive; its just preloaded into RAM from what I can tell.

I'm slightly concerned about the fact that dialer/contacts will sync with my gmail and facebook accounts, but will not consistently sync status updates and/or profile pictures on any level of reliability. Would there be any reason AOSP contacts is having these issues?
[EVO 4G General] amw1972:
Flashed RC1 earlier...and noticed that Maps was acting funny:

-GPS was enabled...but Maps didn't provide a fix. Other apps requiring GPS location locked on with no issues.

-other times starting Maps, cannot pinpoint location even when GPS operational.

-at times, GPS does NOT turn off even when Maps was killed.

-after clearing data for Maps...same issues remain.

-thru all of these issues GPS status was able to provide a fix in under 3 seconds in a moving vehicle at 75 mph.

Question: is this a Map issue? or is it a GPS issue? To me it seems like something is borked in Maps...(may need new GAPPS perhaps?)

Has anyone tried out the new nightly...and did they experience the same issue?
[EVO 4G General] brofist:
I'm experiencing similar issues, as GMaps has yet to lock on my location, outside, for twenty minutes. Seems unusual, but I don't find it particularly disturbing (wifi places me within twelve metres, gives accurate locale results).

I haven't flashed a CM Rom since I first had a mytouch 3g (I might have tested it when I first got my EVO, I can't remember) but I just flashed CM 7 and it's something refreshing. I usually keep a rom that's close to stock sense but I'm gonna have some fun with this

BK553 had an idea yesterday that you could team up on:

BK553 Yesterday, 07:03 PM post# 11909

I think what we need is an app or website where people can, in the form of a survey or something, detail their setup, hw version, apps running, kernel, ROM etc.. and cross-reference it with complaints. That way, instead of everyone getting on here and saying "oh, 3 reboots today and bad battery life", they could put their information in, and we could all be like 'Hey look, 96% of the people with {Insert widget name here} are getting extra crappy battery life or "Wow, everyone with custom light-sensor levels is rebooting" And then we would all be like 'Whoa" And then life would be better.

Has anyone been able to tether over USB with the .37 kernel? It works fine with the .35 kernel (nightly 30), but when I flashed nightly 37 (with .37 kernel), and today RC1, USB tether no longer works. It activates tethering, then seems to lose the USB connection, then reconnects USB without tethering.

hey guys does anyone have problems with 3g speeds on this rom. I can't get more then 300kb while I just flashed back to sense and had like 1mb down. Now I'm back to CM7 rc1 and still getting about 250kb most of the time.

[EVO 4G General] mintee:
I too still have GPS issues. I tried it on the way to work today, and the Driving navigation locked on immediately and followed my car for about 50 yards, then hung up and seemed to have lost signal.

So it seems the GPS is actually working, but it locks or something. Memory leak or something maybe?
[EVO 4G General] erikivy:
Yes, I was able to tether via USB last night on nightly 37. I did get an error in the system tray on the computer about not installing the drivers correctly, but the tethering was still working. If I remember correctly, however, the first try didn't work and I had to turn on tethering a second time to get it to work.
[EVO 4G General] LancerEVA06:
I tried USB tethering last night. With Windows 7 it took a second for the interface to come up, but it did. I ran a speedtest and got 1.5Mbps/752Kbps.

Refer to what I previously said... I had to do the GPS fix, so when I was on Sense I did a speed test and got half of the CM7 numbers. Weird.
[EVO 4G General] HiTekRawkus:
Same here, gps locks on then navigator or google maps freezes, then says it lost signal, then acquires it right after, then freezes again, etc.

Edit: same happens while using gps test app
[EVO 4G General] dkotoric:
hey has anyone else noticed that on RC1 and only on rc1 have I noticed this that even if I set my time to 24hrs it still shows the AM/PM on the lock screen.
[EVO 4G General] ctmay4:
GPS issues here also

I had GPS issues on an earlier nightly. I fixed it at some point with fix that involved loading a Sense rom and entering the GPS clear code into the dialer. I have barely used GPS since I tested it once though.

So last night I flashed RC1. Complete wipe. Also used the format all after the full wipe, but I'm not sure that is necessary. I didn't not use Titanium Backup. I restored everything from the market.

I can't get a lock in Navigator. Always searching for GPS. In maps, it seems to get close to my location, but never seems to get a total lock.

For people that have GPS working on RC1, did you have to do the GPS clear trick again?
[EVO 4G General] Vandelay007:
You should not need to do it again....I flashed RC1 ontop of slutty Ginger (that's what she said) and only wiped cache and dalvik ... no problem with GPS at all....

.....sent from my pimpin' echo!
[EVO 4G General] ctmay4:
Yeah, I initially flashed over the nightly. When the GPS wasn't working I did the full wipe. I guess I'll have to wait to see if my issues are common or not.

[EVO 4G General] mintee:
Solved: I was having issues with the GPS as seen on page 1204 and this fixed it for me.

I did a nandroid backup of RC1

Ran the Calkulin's_FORMAT_ALL

Flashed FreshEvo

Did the ##gpsclrx# fix

Rebooted

Did the ##gpsclrx# fix a second time (for safe measures)

Rebooted into recovery

Ran the Calkulin's_FORMAT_ALL again

Restored my RC1 backup

GPS works perfectly for me now.

Had that as well, but it seems to only happen on the Revamped Rotary lock screen.

Had something really strange happen three times earlier. I was streaming music via bluetooth in my car, and all of the sudden the phone would start to crawl. The music would stutter every .5 seconds, the screen would take about 30 seconds to come on after pushing power and would hang for 30 seconds before going into a 10 second stuttering screen-off animation. Couldn't troubleshoot too much since I was driving, and haven't had a chance to try and replicate it at work.

Yes full wipe, stock kernel etc etc

Anyone's phone suddenly get unusably slow? It didn't freeze, but just slowed WAY down. Mine just did, took 15 seconds from the time I hit the power button till the screen turned off. Once the screen is off, it takes 10-15 seconds for something to appear again when trying to turn it back on, but when it does, it turns itself right back off.

Stock flashed RC1, only thing I did is change VM heap to 24M. I did NOT mess with the CPU settings.

EDIT: I did use the format all zip before flashing RC1.

Titanium works perfectly, it's not that it's broken, you just have to be clever about which things you restore. Restoring things like market and some system preferences can cause issues, in my experience. Restoring 3rd party apps works like a champ.

[EVO 4G General] Sweetlittlehugs:
This is how I got it working-

Make nandroid

Flash sense rom

Use titanium to back up vvm

Use root explorer to move vvm apk to memory card

restore nandroid

Uninstall the vvm you had installed on cm7

Move the sense vvm back to system apps and install

Restore data only from titanium
[EVO 4G General] Circaflex:
Heres how i got it to work

There is a vvm.apk floating around here if you cant find it i can upload it when i get home from work. DO NOT FLASH A ZIP FOR VVM.

Flash sense based rom, test voicemail making sure it is working. Use titanium backup to backup visual voicemal.

Flash CM7 install google stuff sync w/e you like. Install titanium backup.

Install vvm.apk Dont open it after just yet.

Open titanium backup and find visual voicemail. Select restore and it will only offer data only because the copy you made from Sense is built into the rom.

This has worked for me and multiple friends.
